The House today passed a $3,800,000,000 foreign aid bill but it was impossible to ascertain how much economic assistance the legislation contained for Israel.
It was assumed by some persons close to the legislative scene that Israel would get not less than $20,000,000 in the next fiscal year. However, this was admittedly guess-work as there is no way of telling what the final sum will be. The government will publish no figures until next January. Apart from economic aid, the bill contains $2,000,000 in technical assistance for Israel.
